PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 10.-Com.
mander Harper, OF the department OF
Pennsylvania G.. A. r. posts, has is.
sued an order for Grand Army dem
onstration in the military parade
next Friday. The wording of the
order is the cause of no little com
ment. 1t reads as follows: "In
passing the reviewing stand, or while
being reviewed by Lieut.. Gen. Phil
III. Sheridan OF the United States
army, none but post commanders
will salute, and the post command
ers' colors will be dipped as the
parade will be reviewed by president
Cleveland, and Gen. Sheridan will be
in command of the line"
1t is claimed by some of the veter-
ans not Grand Army men that the
name OF president Cleveland should
have been inserted in that para
graph of the order and that it is a
direct slight to the chief magistrate
in not doing so. The men, however,
are all of the opinion that the matter
was an oversight and that no slight
was intended.
THE FRENCH ARMY.
PARIS, Sept. 10.-The mobilization
experiment has necessitated the rails
ing OF the Seventeenth army corps
from 10000 to 36,759 fully clothed
and armed and equipped. Members
of the reserve are of fine physique.
The cavalry have good pace, but the
men lack a firm seat, many having
been thrown. The officers were some
what bothered in handling a larger
body Of men than they were accus-
toned to- The artillery movements
were sluggish, but altogether, how
ever, the experience inspires conf
dence in the army, the Seventeenth
corp not being regarded as the best
in the army.
NOT DEAD YET.
